It's been a minute since I've posting anything on here. So I figured I would drop some updated pictures in here. (Mod list at the very bottom)
A couple months ago, I ditched the reps and bought a set of Cosmis MR7 as temporaries until I finally made my move to Florida. They weren't anything special. Hence, temporary.
(Don't mind the lack of a CPL filter.
)
I ditched those about 2 months ago and put in the order for some CCWs. I was a little upset that the fitment wasn't aggressive enough. So I put 16mm spacers on the front and soon, I will be buying 4.5" lips for the rear after I do my FWD conversion. Converting to FWD is going to grant me the following conveniences:
-Staggered wheels
-I won't need longer axles for excessive camber. (Axles pull out of the rear diff with any camber past -9)
-No more replacing axles
-No more rear diff maintenance
-No more 3-wheel launches
-I can tuck my exhaust farther up in the driveshaft well
-Traction is going to be better in the front due to less camber
-Less weight (not like it matters)
-No having to replace rear trans seals
Anyways, enough babble:
My new fitment. Needs more rear camber. by Mookz Photography, on Flickr
As it sits, it looks like the camber is square all around and is looking to be in the range of -7ish. Once I get my 4.5" lips to replace my 3.5" in the rear, I will be in business. I would like to be in the realm of -12 or so in the rear. While it's not everybody's cup of tea, I enjoy the look of ridiculous camber to an extent.
Other plans for the next few months include painting the car, wrapping interior pieces, swapping to a scoopless hood, having my front bumper and lip molded together and if I don't go wingless, I am having my wing raised up higher. Chicks dig big wangs right?
I hope you guys liked it and I will report back with updates!
